John 19:38 in Context — John 19
36 Porque estas coisas aconteceram para que se cumprisse a Escritura [que diz] : Osso dele não será quebrado.
37 E além disso, outra Escritura diz: Verão [aquele] a quem perfuraram.
38 E depois José de Arimateia, (que era discípulo de Jesus, porém oculto por medo dos Judeus) suplicou a Pilatos que pudesse tirar o corpo de Jesus; e Pilatos permitiu. Veio pois e tirou o corpo de Jesus.
39 E veio também Nicodemos, (aquele que antes de noite tinha vindo a Jesus) trazendo um composto de mirra e aloés, de quase cem arráteis.
40 Tomaram pois o corpo de Jesus, e o envolveram em lençóis com as especiarias, como é costume dos judeus sepultarem.
